Mike got paid in Grand Slams.
We totally need a .GIF of Mike with the power-tool and Chuck noping out of there.

He's safe until the cousins kill him in the S2 finale when Mike was trying to snipe Hector.I'm just surprised Ximinez survived the opening scene.
Betting right now that Kim totally recorded that final conversation. New Mexico a one-party consent state. A lot of states have a "one-party consent" rule, so as long as one person knows a convo is being recorded, then it's legal. Meaning you can record people without telling them in NM, just like Chuck did to Jimmy. Now the shoe's totally on the other foot.
I think they want the tape of Jimmy's confession to be brought into evidence so they can say that Jimmy made it all up in order to placate his mentally ill brother. The scientifically unproven or unknown disease that Chuck claims to be suffering from, the pictures that show how dangerously he lives and the witnesses (Jimmy, Kim, Ernesto and even Hamlin) that could testify to his odd or mentally ill behavior would really bolster the idea that Jimmy was just telling Chuck what he wanted to hear out of fear for his safety. Even if everyone was still suspicious of Jimmy, it will muddy the waters enough that they couldn't disbar him.
I'm now into Breaking Bad episodes that feature Saul Goodman and with having seen Better Call Saul, I find the character to have changed from being the comedic relief in BB to just being very sad. Saul was always the funny sleazy lawyer prior to BCS but now, I see how badly Jimmy messed up his life and became a piece of crap. It's amazing how good both shows are to make you see completely different sides of the same character(s).I've had the Breaking Bad Blu-ray box set forever and I just started watching it recently. What's amazing is how much more rich Better Call Saul makes the supporting characters of BB. Obviously, Saul and Mike but seeing Tuco, Hector, the cousins and even Krazy 8 or Francesca in BB now, they all have more history and all seem more real.
Is it the first time you are watching Breaking Bad?I'm now into Breaking Bad episodes
No, I'm just rewatching Breaking Bad for the first time since it ended and the first time since Better Call Saul started. I saw the BB episodes when they first aired, I'd periodically rewatch the episodes during the off seasons and I'd always rewatch all the episodes before a new season began so I imagine I've seen the earliest seasons probably almost 10 times now.Is it the first time you are watching Breaking Bad?
Gus is at least suspected of being gay and he's not Mexican (he's from Chile) so the cartel would probably not be that concerned that Hector is screwing with a guy who is an outsider on multiple levels even one who is financially successful as long as he isn't having a negative effect on the money going to the cartel.How it makes sense that a low level criminal, Hector, dares to go to a higher level criminal, Gus' place and threatens him?
Gus clearly made a lot more money than Hector. Making that much money clearly means he should be in a higher level of protection and already should have muscle men and assassins. Makes no sense for him to go to hire Mike, some guy who nobody knows.
Wow that's dedication. The only series that I have seen 10 times or more is Friends.I've seen the earliest seasons probably almost 10 times now.
In a flashback in episode 408- Hermanos, Hector kills Max (Gus' business partner/possible lover) and then Gus spent 20 years plotting revenge against Hector and Dons Eladio & Bolsa for their involvement in Max's death so it would seem like it was a much deeper wound than if they had just killed a close friend. If you watch the scene, it's easy to read Giancarlo Esposito's performance as that he's seeing someone he loves die. In the season 5 premiere, you see a picture of Gus and Max together on Gus' desk at Pollos which. after 2 decades, seems odd to have if he was just a friend. All that being said, it is open to interpretation.Wow, all this is news to me. When was implied that he is gay?
It's also why I needed a break of a few years after so seeing them so many times. And I shudder to think how many times I've seen Seinfeld, Twin Peaks or the first ten years of The Simpsons.Wow that's dedication. The only series that I have seen 10 times or more is Friends.
In the episode, Chuck and Howard claimed that the destroyed tape was "irreplaceable." If the tape destroyed was a copy of the original, as they told Kim, then their claim of the tape's irreplaceability is patently false, and Chuck would have just perjured himself.Assuming this is the case, where does that get them, I wonder? Nothing illegal about having a duplicate tape. And even if he did admit that he was baiting Jimmy (and if I remember correctly, Kim said that but Chuck never verbally confirmed that), Jimmy still broke in and "damaged" the tape.
